Cashmere Scarf FOR HIM Kit, by Jade Sapphire Exotic Fibres

Nancy JirtleCyberFibres bought a Cashmere Scarf FOR HIM kit, by Jade Sapphire Exotic Fibres, and knitted a medium weight mané─˘s scarf using the kité─˘s fibres and instructions. The kit included 200 grams (350 yards) of 4-ply 100% Mongolian cashmere yarn and a brochure of 7 MANLY Scarf Patterns. The color selected was Camel.

Each of the seven patterns carries a male name. CyberFibres chose the é─˛Kené─˘ pattern, which consisted of squares of stockinette stitiches (knit one row, purl on the next) framed by garter stitches (knit on every row). The pattern produced a medium weight scarf with the clean lines preferred by many men, and the cashmere fibre provided the soft feel preferred by virtually all wearers of scarves!

The Cashmere Scarf FOR HIM kit is available through yarn shops (CyberFibres purchased it at The Hillsborough Yarn Shop, Hillsborough, NC) and can also be found on several yarn websites, including Kaleidoscope Yarns at http://www.kyarns.com.
